Trump Repeats Vow to 'Build the Wall' Following Attack on Border Agents

(CNSNews.com) - "Border Patrol Officer killed at Southern Border, another badly hurt," President Trump tweeted on Sunday. "We will seek out and bring to justice those responsible. We will, and must, build the Wall!"

According to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency, Agent Rogelio Martinez was "responding to activity" near Interstate 10 in the Big Bend Sector of Texas when he and his partner were attacked.

The circumstances are unclear. According to CBP, agents from CBP's Air and Marine Operations searched the area "for potential suspects or witnesses."

Martinez' partner is now hospitalized in serious condition, but he was able to call for help............

That was my impression as well ... Congress still holds the purse strings. We've seen prototypes, but I haven't heard which one (if any) was selected, nor a start date.  Perhaps they're saving that information to boost popularity during the 2018 mid term elections.  :whistle:

I'm assuming that Mexico is going to pay for the stupid wall.

Gee Kevin ... I didn't see that comment coming at all.   *****rollingeyes*****   At this point, the cost is secondary.  Lives and our sovereignty are far more important!
